ADMINISTRATIVE OVERVIEW
Background
Arkansas State University enjoys a reputation as a national doctoral granting institution of higher
education as recognized by the Carnegie Foundation as a Research 2 institution. It is the only
comprehensive public university located in this region. Dedicated to teaching, research and
service, the University provides students with the broad educational foundations that help develop
critical thinking and analytical skills, decision-making capabilities, and communication skills.
This institution was founded in 1909 by the Arkansas Legislature as a regional agricultural training
school. It began offering a two-year college program in 1918, then was renamed "First District
Agricultural and Mechanical College" in 1925. A four-year degree program was begun in 1930; A
& M College became "Arkansas State College" in 1933. The Arkansas Legislature elevated the
college to university status and changed the name to Arkansas State University in 1967.
Master's degree graduate programs were initiated in 1955, and A-State began offering its first
doctoral degree, in educational leadership, in the fall of 1992. Programs at the specialist, master’s,
bachelor’s and associate degree levels are available through the various colleges: Agriculture, Neil
Griffin Business, Communications and Liberal Arts, Education and Behavioral Science,
Engineering and Computer Science, Nursing and Health Professions, Sciences and Mathematics,
and University College.
Arkansas State University commitment to excellence in higher education is demonstrated by its
accreditation by The Higher Learning Commission of the North Central Association of Colleges
and Schools, as well as 18 specialized accrediting organizations.
Arkansas State is a member of the Arkansas State University System.
The Mission of Arkansas State University

information that is required will result in your firm’s proposal being disqualified.
The contract will be awarded to the vendor, firm, contractor, offeror or proposer (“vendor”) who best
satisfies all of the University’s needs at optimum cost and service performance. Cost will not be the
sole criteria for determining the contract award. Vendors shall state the purchase price of each
individual line item in the Proposal Packet. The University shall issue a firm, fixed-price contract for
the services resulting from this RFP.
Arkansas State University is one of multiple components of the Arkansas State University System. If
another Arkansas State University campus desires to utilize the services of the selected provider, and
the provider agrees, they may enter into an agreement as provided in this RFP. The data,
specifications, and administrative requirements outlined herein are intended to serve as a general
guideline for each proposal. Each firm is expected to submit a fully detailed proposal which
adequately describes the advantages and benefits which the University would realize by accepting its
proposal.

accordance with Arkansas Code §19-11-249, this proposal and resulting contract is available
